Hey guys
I had the Idea of an Endurance Server, which could be added or replace the GTR server(as it didnt seemed to be used a lot)

The Idea is to run there 30min races with the typical endurance cars, GT1/GT2/NGT. And the tracks would depend on the next track to drive in IGTC/MoE/GTAL or single Events like 16hs.

That would give the participating Teams the chance to practice with other Drivers on the Track, so it would be more Fun then driving alone and it would be an opportunity for everybody else to drive some endurance races on a daily basis without beeing in a League.

What do you guys think about that?

Yes, I've been thinking much the same thing about the GTR server. I don't know if LFS allows race time less than one hour, but any race from 30 minutes and up would be fun. I guess Airio should allow for, say, 50 minutes races, with 10 minutes brakes between each. If races restart at each hour, it would be easy to know when the next race will begin.

I like the idea but not replacing GTR, if it ware to be made it should be like an events server but this is just talk from those who still play which is not many and will b even less if santa Scawen doesn't come, again...

Why not? I understand that Cargame would like to offer it as an alternative. But there is no one racing there. It would be of no loss to anyone, so what good use is it?
If this type of server could generate some more racing, that would only be positive.

GTR server will not be removed, I am in no way forced to do that anyway. I have no server limit or something (well, Airio does with a max of 6 licensed servers).

I on purpose do not want to open too many servers because giving people too much choice is not good. People cannot handle choices :D

But I think it's not a bad idea to release a training server again for the public but I have some special thoughts about that. It needs to be open but not to all to begin with (high !rate, !rank and or !ex limit I think) and midjoining must not be allowed.

Not by me. I have no time for that. (It takes more time then you think).

And that is a special culture anyway.

i like the diea of the scheduled races to every full hour with breaks, which would be needed after the longer races.
Managing a League comes with some serious work, as I could tell you from my experiences.

As there is actualy the ney LFS Super GT League coming up, maybe that would be a good point to start at. Giving Peoples the Chance to drive the GT300 in some races and the GT500 Drivers to get used to lap them. And as there is allready a big Number of Sign Ups to that League will could have a lot of potential Drivers.

The restrictions are different from their Airio counterparts for that league. That immediately gives problems because I am not going to change/agree with that.

GT3 has +1%, FXR even has +2%

And FZR is restricted in the unrestricted version ( :lol: )

But, of course you will be allowed to train with (more) restriction.

We have a very good S1 and S2 server, and the Demo is sometimes busy. So that is quit okay. The GTR, OW and OT are almost empty all the time. I think you have to make the GTR + OW server back again like a half year ago. And to make it interesting, you can maby do automatic at 18.30 UTC a practise and 19.00 Qual for about 25 min, and after that the race start for about 45 min orso with 1 pitstop. And every day there will be another track for the qual and race, but for the other 22 hours it will be just like normal. Anyway, I,am not sure if something like that easy is to make. But it will be much more interesting for a lot of drivers. At least I think you have to make the GTR and OW back again like GTR + OW. I always see a few people on the GTR and also on the OW on the same time. But if you have those on the same server, it is more busy and more people will join than. Its likes on the S1 / S2 than, but only with other cars.

And maby the OT is good for Endurance training. (OT are now also on the S2) And maby a good idea to make on lfs or cargame forum a topic about the Endurance training to post a few days for the real race to do some test races on our server.

So than you have 5 servers they are different and interesting because its different than the most servers on lfs.

OT is empty because it's a locked server right now, just for myself and I. :lol:

S2, S1, GTR, OW stays the same until at least the end of this year.

But I'm willing to do something special for the league trainers / endurance racers. But it also involves a little programming, keep bugging me about it. If I realize there is demand for it, I'm capable of doing amazzziingggg stuff :fp: :D
